<<Bush is so verbally-challenged>> Not so when he reads from a script. But it will be so during debates, which I think he will minimize. Nevertheless, Bush has a stigma of lies and deceit, and there should be plenty of doubts on his intentions and ability to deliver any new promises. If the economy doesn't improve, it would be difficult to mask reality. Not much Bush can brag about. Can't even take care of domestic security, always reacting to rumors by issuing red alerts. The alerts are becoming detrimental, and would be negative to any claim of greater national security. Soon people will awaken to the fact that greater security should not equal alerts. The alerts have become signals of ineptitudes and failures, of incomplete task and poorly done job. Any talk or mention of AQ will do the same, because people will realize (even if subconsciously) that AQ is still alive and well, and causing all the alerts.

For some reason some think that today the cure to the US economy would be a different administration - e.g. Kerry - with al due respect to his views I do not see what Kerry can bring to the table than more hog wash - that said it does not mean that this administration is any good. What many fail to identify is that the US system is on the edge of BK, and no party is willing to tackle with the real problems of the US economy. For example as long as the present financial system is in place and the laws are not properly enforced what meaning will have a change in the administration ? after all the administration by itself can not rein in the Money Center Banks the FED or WS thieves and swindlers. My point is that the accusation fingers are pointed to the wrong direction – the sorry state of our lower standard of living is not from the war in Iraq but from the machination of US FED and financial related institutions. The extraordinary power that Money Center Banks, the FED and WS with is affiliated institution like the big insurance companies have over us and our well being is much more than some elected officials who in any case are already sold to the interests of those institutions. In other words any elected administration power drafts against the power of the Thieves and Swindlers who impose themselves upon us and are not even elected. Any one who thinks that Kerry has the guts and balls to take the Money Center Banks, the FED and WS et - al ... head on is sorely mistaken. I am writing this from a computer who is unfortunate operating a cartel type, inferior operating system, which the Democrats were unable to tackle - so what good will it do, if another face shows up in the White House at a time the FAT CATS have them already in their pockets? All the “party bashing” being democrats or republicans is a waste of tremendous resources and funds – the real institution that must be destroyed and cut in size is not some political organization it is those MEGA Financial institution whose leaders embezzle us legally with laws designed to protect them and their action, achieved with bribing elected officials to design those laws – from election campaign contribution to more subtle way of graft. As an example - from were is Clinton's Secretary of Treasury receiving his way way overrated pay? ... and if he will be returning to an elected administration whose interest will he protect ? for sure not the interests of the people. The true issue is that the US has no legitimate leadership that will have the courage imagination and stamina to change the way we live to the better - sheep will continue to get slaughtered and those with the right connection to prosper well over their qualification and live well above their means. Best example for today is GOOGLE - IPO - already the dogs and cats are after the company finding all types of irregularities and non-sense - why ? because they refused to succumb to the thievery of WS. So Enron or WorldCom and scores of other similar companies were just OK in the eyes of the regulators until the proverbial "sh*&^t hit the fan" but GOOGLE Oh no they are not playing by the rules. Yes some of Enron and WorldCom management will spend time behind bars but how many Bankers and WS types who enabled all this walk free and enjoy their illicit compensation and profits in their oversized mansions and Yachts on OUR expense? It is about time to wake up and demand the right think regardless if democrat or republican - the power of those mentioned above most by restored to their real contribution to the economy and as such their influence on US politics and economy substantially diminished.... .... Oh and just forgot the tremendous crime of Martha Stuart and the innocent juror who lied to the FED and Courts just to be able to get HIS day in front of the TV Channels ....
